Re: disabling abbreviations inside comments

Resending due to delivery failure. Sorry for any inconvenience



I have some iabbreviations defined. The problem is that the iabbrs get
expanded even while I am writing comments (in VHDL).

Is there a way to detect that I am currently typing a comment (line
that has -- anywhere before the cursor), and temporarily disable
abbreviation expansion? When I finish typing the comment, I would like
all the abbreviations to be expanded as usual.

Thanks

Mrinal

My VimL-library suite lh-map-tools defines a few functions that helps
implementing such abbreviations.

(Note: it also comes with a bracketing-system, and all the documentation
you'll need - :h MapNoContext(), :h BuildMapSeq(). For more advanced
mappings have a look at my CC++ ftplugins suite.)

HTH,
